What's really special about Heidi and idk if this is still true, but sometime after the creator of MySQL forked MySQL into MariaDB, on Windows, the installer used to include HeidiSQL since they no longer owned the MySQL Workbench, and honestly, as far as open source clients go, Heidi was always my preferred one every single time. It's got its quirks but its so good once you figure it out.

I haven't installed Maria on Windows in forever, but does it not do that anymore? Yes, this is definitely true -- I remember seeing it several times, that's how I found out HeidiSQL existed!
